Job 37:20


Job 37:19 Job 37:20 (KJV) Job 37:21
Teach us what we shall say unto him; [for] we cannot order [our speech] by reason of darkness.
Shall it be told him that I speak? if a man speak, surely he shall be swallowed up.
And now [men] see not the bright light which [is] in the clouds: but the wind passeth, and cleanseth them.
